White supremacist Nick Fuentes said Thursday an armed man was shot to death by cops after targeting his home which was recently doxxed online.
Police confirmed a man was shot and killed by officers Wednesday in the Chicago suburb where Fuentes is known to have lived.
In a statement, Berwyn Police Department said the man was a suspect in the killing of three people 140 miles away earlier in the day.
Police did not confirm that Fuentes was in any way involved.
The shooting happened in Berwyn just after 11:30 p.m., cops said. The man had broken into a home and shot to death two dogs before being chased, they said.
He was shot when he opened fire on officers, Berwyn police’s statement read.

Fuentes, a known white supremacist who once had dinner with then ex-President Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago, claimed on X that the man threatened him.
"Last night an armed killer made an attempt on my life at my home, which was recently doxed on this platform," he wrote.
He said he carried a "pistol, crossbow, and incendiary devices."
"I believe he intended to kill me," he wrote. "He is now dead. I am okay!”
Attempts to contact Berwyn Police Dept. were unsuccessful, but Fuentes’ claims were not corroborated in its statement.
Fuentes' home address was posted online in November after he made a post on X that read, “Your body, my choice. Forever."
